Yes, the boiling of the pot will depend on whether there is an observer looking at it. Until there is an observation made, the pot is neither boiling nor not boiling; it is in an indeterminate state in which there is a probability distribution of boiling/not-boiling possibilities. The instant someone looks at it, one of the possible states becomes the actual state, and the other probabilites fall away.

I have to get my strange answer in here, too.
